The birth and death narratives of Jesus in the Gospels of Mathew and Luke contradict each other. They are not reconcilable. It is not possible to make a single timeline for either the birth or death that can logically include all the events mentioned in both Mathew and Luke.
If the birth and death narratives of the centrally most import character in Christianity are contradictory then the Bible is not, and cannot be, infallibly true.
If the Bible is not infallibly true, how can it be the Word of God?
If the Bible is not infallibly true, then how can we trust anything it says?
